Braille Signage from Hillmont Braille Signs, Sydney

Braille and tactile signs are becoming increasingly widespread in both public areas and commercial premises due to increasing awareness about individuals with disabilities. If you are responsible for taking care of the mandatory signage on your business premises it is well worth considering the use of braille and tactile signage at an early stage.

Thoughtful use of signage would give you the opportunity to convey a positive message about your business and totally fulfill the needs of your clients at little extra cost to your business at the same time as ensuring that your business and premises are fully compliant with the mandatory laws governing signage (*Internet Source).

High profile projects provided by Hillmont Braille Signs include many of the facilities for the Sydney 2000 Olympics, the award-winning wayfinding system at the University of Sydney as well as the Epping to Chatswood Railway and Braille signs inside the new Oscar railway carriages.

We are pleased to be able to provide the best quality Braille signage available on the market. The process not only involves engraving but drilling and placing epoxy dots in the holes to produce the most tactile Braille signage available

. These signs are manufactured to exceed Australian and New Zealand standards and are a lot more durable than standard engraved signage.

Hillmont Braille Signs is one of the most successful and innovative manufacturers of Braille in Australia and have been manufacturing and supplying Braille / tactile and general signage solutions throughout Australia for over 15 years from our Northwest Sydney location (now based at Castle Hill).

We have a large range of standard U.V. stable acrylic signage in stock as well as being able to manufacture non-standard colours, materials and designs to your specifications. They are stand-alone signs able to be mounted directly to any flat surface without the need for a backing plate. Materials include acrylic, brass, aluminium and stainless steel. Braille, symbols and text are all solvent bonded to the surface of the sign ensuring a permanent bond.

Hillmont Braille Signs uses Grade 1 U.E.B.
